"It makes my skin a little bit dry"

Wilkinsons coconut shower cream

WHAT IS IT?

This is shower cream that you buy from Wilkinsons.

THE PACKAGING

This shower cream comes in a tube and I think that is good because it is easier to use a tube than a bottle when you are in the shower. The lid flips open but it is not very tight when it is closed so I do not take this shower cream to the gym because I am afraid that it will come open in my bag.

WHAT I THINK

I bought 3 tubes of this shower cream because it had the price cut and cost only 50p. I was happy with the fragrance when I tried it in the shop and I was happy that I bought the shower gel after I used it because it is very pleasing and makes me feel very clean when I use it.

The fragrance is like fresh coconuts but it is sweet also and it is very much like coconut shampoo and conditioner that used to be offered by hairdressers. I like to use it because the smell is strong when I am in the shower and it lingers on my skin also. It is a very comforting in fragrance I think.

The shower gel makes me feel very clean but it makes my skin dry also and that is a pity because when I apply body cream after my shower it spoils the coconut smell. I have to use body cream very time I use this shower gel but when my children use it it does not make their skin dry.

ANYTHING ELSE

I think this shower gel is very good for very cheap money and I will buy some more because it smells nice and I like to use coconut body produce.

A good shower cream

Another product which I decided to try from the Wilko range of bath and shower products is the Wilko Tropical Shower Cream Coconut. As usual, this can only be bought in Wilko shops or online and will cost you £1 for a 250ml tube. These have also been on offer for ages at 2 for £1.50.

The shower gel comes in a plastic tube/ bottle, which stands upright on the flip top cap at the bottom. The tube is covered with a white printed on label, which gives the product information and description along with a picture of a coconut cut in half with drops of liquid coming off it. I like the picture on this product as it really does make the shower gel look tempting... and also made me want coconut. I think that this product is a lot plainer looking than others in the same range but only because it is white rather than a bright colour.

The cap at the bottom of the tube is quite stiff which makes it a bit hard to pop open. This isn't the best idea for when you're in the shower and already have wet hands. I tend to leave the cap slightly open all of the time now without clicking it back shut after every use. The shower cream squeezes out of the tube easily enough and it comes out in thick amounts so not too much at any time. As I said before, the colour of this product is white and the shower cream does like quite plain and boring because of this.

The scent of coconut is quite strong with this shower cream but it is also very refreshing at the same time. When used on a puff ball, the cream lathers up very quickly under hot water. There is also quite a lot of lather with this one and noticeably more than when using other Wilko bath/ shower products. The rich lather feels great on my skin and the scent of coconut is lovely, especially during my morning shower. I feel as though this is a shower cream which wakes me up more than some others. After rinsing off the cream, this makes my skin feel really soft and moisturised as well as clean and refreshed.

This coconut shower cream is one of my favourites from Wilko and I'll definitely be buying it again.
